Filled with fluid forms and dramatic curves, a former butter factory was transformed into a modern work of art to house this unconventional Melbourne Loft. The open floor plan surrounds a museum-quality staircase that leads to a roofrop terrace overlooking the cityscape. A monochromatic palette gives the space a gallery feel to compliment the minimalist decor and sculpted walls, while highlighting the grey marble counters and dark, second-story wood floor. The original steel trusses were removed to accommodate an upper floor with two bedrooms, a bathroom and an optional studio to release the creativity this interior is sure to inspire.

Sustainable. Prefabricated. Yet totally personal. Using an aluminum frame manufactured by Bosch and glass walls, the IT House is designed to be customized yet can be built in just eight weeks. It uses radiant heat flooring and rooftop solar panels to keep its environmental footprint to a minimum, and can be built to stay totally off the grid. Options including moveable walls, fireplaces, and designer furniture, and with packages starting as 1,200 square feet, it can accommodate nearly any needs.

Perched on a Chilean cliff's edge, the Encallada House is part beach house, part mountain retreat. The exterior is covered in charred pine wood, with an angular roof that recalls the rocky terrain. Inside, light wood on the walls, floors, and ceilings contrasts with the house's exterior and the frames of the floor-to-ceiling windows, which afford views of an estuary and the Pacific beyond. The home is split into five levels, with large open spaces and a sizable terrace on the ground floor, and bedrooms spread across the upper levels.

It's hard to imagine trying to improve on the Filson Cruiser. After all, it's been a Filson fixture for over 100 years. But the Filson Long Cruiser Jacket is probably the best update we can think of for this iconic piece of outerwear. Made with the same 24-oz. Mackinaw Wool and pocket design as the original, it's been extended to three-quarter length for extra warmth and protection. This version also has flannel-lined handwarmers, horn buttons, and a vented lower back opening with snap. Upper lining has also been added to the Cruiser to ensure that this classic look keeps you safe from whatever winter throws your way.

In a neighborhood filled with oversized homes, the Stamford House stands out not by the space it occupies, but the space it doesn't. The home, also referred to as That House, is constructed using three rectangular forms — two on the bottom, joined by an open walkway, that house the shared family space, with a kitchen, living room, office, and bathroom, and a single upper space straddling both to house the bedrooms. With floor-to-ceiling glass capping all three components on both sides, upwards blinds to give the owners control over their level of privacy, while a cross-shaped pool matches the angular design of the home itself.

Built as a holiday home on the shores of a royal-owned lake not far from Vienna, the Seehaus uses its horseshoe-shaped structure to great effect. Inside the building, which is clad in blackened timber panels, are five bedrooms, multiple living areas and bathrooms, and a sauna, with plenty of glass on the northern side, and south-facing glazing limited to areas shadowed by the neighboring building. In the center is a patio/courtyard that provides plenty of outdoor living space, while providing views of the water and evening sunsets.
